NBA legend Charles Barkley is not happy with the NFL trying to take over Christmas.
On Thursday, the NFL aired a tripleheader on different platforms.
According to Roger Goodell, the NFL will aim to host three NFL games on Christmas Day going forward.
On Christmas, Barkley blasted Goodell and the NFL for infringing on what used to be an NBA day.
“The NFL got greedy and started adding Christmas games. We used to have this day to ourselves but Roger Goodell and them pigs at the NFL always want to hog every day of the week now. … Christmas is an NBA day.”
NBA fans agreed with Barkley’s hot take.
“Charles Barkley is absolutely right. NFL got greedy. No reason for the NFL to be playing on Christmas. Christmas has been an NBA tradition since 1947. The NFL’s tradition is on Thanksgiving” commented one fan.
“He’s not wrong, NFL has Thanksgiving let the NBA have Christmas” said another fan.
